Effective Feedback for Understanding Emerging Leaders from Nigerian Tertiary Institutions

Abstract

Leadership commitment is essential to the survival and progress of every country, especially the underdeveloped countries, including Nigeria. Incidentally Nigeria is one of the most populated countries in the world with a fast developing economy after China and India. However there appears to be a virtual vacuum of real, effective and visionary leadership in place. Therefore there is need for the country to make a generational shift and look towards its emerging leaders from the tertiary institutions of higher learning. Without this all important shift there can never be social, political and leadership changes. There will forever be that constant struggle for survival. This work will therefore expose teachers and mentors to feedback mechanism for understanding emerging leaders. The emerging leaders will understand what is expected of them and the most effective ways to achieve good leadership. Finally the next generation of creative and morally responsible leaders will be inspired and committed to the good of Nigeria.
